ICYMI, last weekend we celebrated the first official National Whole Hog Barbecue Day at The Pit! Thanks to everyone who came by and made it a party. Special thanks to @cityofraleighfd for taking some ‘cue off our hands 👨‍🚒
Sometimes you just need a salad 🥗 Pro tip: add pulled pork or pit-cooked chicken for a healthy, satisfying lunch, and top it all off with your favorite dressing (ours is BBQ Ranch).

Please join us in welcoming The Pit's newest General Manager, James Olivieri! He hails from Eastern NC (so he knows a thing or two about BBQ and southern hospitality), and his favorite thing on the menu is "the chopped 'cue, of course." Welcome, James!
